ADDRESS OF WELCOME BY W.H.CHRISTIE. 

Dr. W. H. Christie, ofCreston. was introduced by J. B. Harsh, presi- 
dent of tlie association, and delivered tlie following address of welcome • 

Veterans: — The question has been asked by some, Whj'' these Re- 
unions ? Would it not be better not to probe these old sores of the war? 
Would it not be better for the country if the past, tliat reunions refer to, 
were forgotten ? My answer would be, never ! They refer to events that 
will ever be prominent in the history of the world. They represent epochs 
tliat are indelibl} engraved on the tablets of time. Wlien those events 
were enacted, you were making great history. Aye more, tliese annual 
celebrations and renewal of old times and friendships and incidents of 
war in handing down by tradition to the future generations tlie patriotism 
that fired the heart and soul of the loyal portion of the nation and pre- 
served its flag without the loss of a star, that declared us a nation, one and 
undivided, inseperable. When in the future, inspiration shall be sought 
to infuse a nation with wisdom to guide the ship of state; discretion to 
avoid pclitical evils; and courage and patriotism to defend and save its 
life ; there will be no volume among the many that shall contain the his- 
tory of the human race that will be studied witii more zeal and pleasure 
and greater profit than the one that shall contain the history of the birth 
and the causes that led to the same, and the development and growth and 
the favorable circumstance or hindering evils that aided or retarded the 
progress of the republic of the western hemisphere. There 't will be re- 
corded how a loyal, devoted people, who had endured every hardship 
and suffered every wrong, finally threw off the yoke of tyranny and oppres- 
sion and declared that all men were created equal and endowed by their 
creator with certain inalienable rights, which were life, liberty, and the 
pursuit of happiness. How valiantly they struggled for and ultimately 
won victory, and organized a republic. There, with their wisdom, just- 
ness and success, will be the story how that in the formation and crystiliza- 
tion of the republic, unconsciously in its bosom was a reptile nursed ; how 
that human slavery had insinuated itself in the very web and woof of the 



6 NINTH ANNUAL REUNION OF TH£ 

body politic ; how it charmed the young Hfe ; how it poisoned the 
fountains of statesmanship and aspiration ; how it inspired every enter- 
prise, arrested every development and checked the intellectual growth of 
the country, except thai section which would best foster its interests and 
protect its life ; how it taught the suicidal doctrine of state sovereigity ; 
how its influence and avarice compelled the nation to plunge into war with 
a friendly people to acquire more territory to dedicate and devote to its 
use, human bondage and human traffic. There it will be recorded that as 
the nation grew, the lethargy produced by its poison began to be relatively 
lessened, and none discerned ihis more quickly than the cunning, jealous 
eye of the monster that had caused it. How the nation, when sufficiently 
aroused to its dangerous position, elected a man from, of and by the peo- 
ple as chief executive, the greatest, best and purest of men — Abraham 
Lincoln. How he was compelled to seek the national capitol as a thief in 
the night to avoid the treacherous vigilance of the misjudged minds of 
that evil influence. How that in its interests the treasury of the nation 
had been emptied by foul means, its navy scattered to distant seas, its 
army dwarfed, and that for years its influence had been so potent in the 
development of millitary minds that the majority (and it was conceded the 
best) military men were its tools and champions, and who souglit to 
destroy that country which had developed them. How its satelites re- 
mained in the halls of legislation until they with their coadjutors had 
determined the very day and hour when that flag which had protected 
them and theirs upon the high seas, and had secured them respect and 
honor abroad, should be insulted, fired upon, and trampled in the dust. 
It will be recorded how the lovers of liberty and freedom throughout the 
ivorld were dazed and amazed, how that the enemies of the republic pre- 
dicted its disentegration, how the pallid lips of its anxious sons and 
daughters inquired "shall the fair temple on these western shores erected 
to liberty and dedicated to humanity, crumble ? Are its loundalions of 
sand ? Has the synonym, the land of the free and home of the brave, been 
a myth and a delusion ? Has our patriotism and our God forsaken us?" 
The patriots and lovers of freedom will be ever inspired by the account of 
the prompt and enthusiastic response in solid phtilanx as the gallant sons 
gathered from hill and plain, with the joyous song, we are 
coming six hundred thousand strong and the glad refrain, we 
are coming three hundred thousand more. How, that phoenix, 
like the largest, finest and best equipped army sprang into exist 
ence with the solemn pledge, that the stain of treason should be wiped 
from the nation's escutcheon, that there should be but one flag and but one

country. The effort put forth; treasury expended; the heroism displayed; 
the suffering endured; the blood shed; lives lost, whether upon the weary, 
fatiguing march in an unaccustomed southern climate; the bloody field of 
battle; the protracted siege; the gallant, brilliant charge, or languishing in 
the hospital or undergoing the heartrending, soul-sickening, hellish ex- 
periences and attrocities of a Libby or an Andersonville ; together with 
those deeds of noble daring and heroism of the navy, attest to the faithful 
fulfilment of that pledge. 'Twill be thus recorded that they proved them- 
selves "worthy sons of valorous sires," and how they proved to the world 
that the fair temple of freedom was deeply and securely lain upon the 
solid rock of truth and justice, that with foes within and foes without, it 
withstood the storms of political strife and the temptest of civil conflict 
as unmoved as '"Atlas while storm and tempest thunder at its brow and 
ocean breaks its billows at its feet." They replaced the ensign, cleansed 
and purified from treason, and ensigned across its folds "The Asylum of 
Freedom," the scintillations of whose brilliant characters will light up the 
trackless waste to all who seek its refuge. Over its portals they placed 
the inscription, all who would exercise devotion at its shrine must sub- 
scribe before entering to the sentiments written by the blood of patriots 
and petrified by fire from the altar of divinity upon the pillars on either 
side that guard its entrance, loyalty, unity, liberty and equality. Temples 
of fame have been erected too, and a halo of glory thrown around the 
memories of Hannibal, Caesar, Charlemagne and Napoleon, who sought 
the benefactions of power to gratify personal ambition even if at the ex- 
pense of humanity. History will record that fame has arranged a con- 
stellation in the galaxy of renown, consisting of Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, 
and their faithful lieutenants, which was unsought except as the finger of 
duty pointed in a service to God, their country and humanity. The 
ravages of time nor its corroding influence can neither destroy nor mar 
their incomparable splendor or imperishable brilliancy. Veterans, we 
recognize in you twenty-five years after the events in the great drama- 
from 1861 to 1865, as a few of the survivors who took part in them. The 
empty sleeve, the crutch, halting gate, the "darkened windows," the in- 
difference for notes of pleasure or "war's alarm," the pinched, worn look, 
the indication of being prematurely in the "sear and yellow leaf," tells of 
the participation in those terrible days and gallant deeds in which you 
were engaged and went through in language more potent than tongue 
or pen can describe. We, the citizens of Creston, appreciate the glories 
won, the benefits conferred by you upon this nation, the unprecedented 
progress and development which has followed as the legitimate fruit of 



8 NINTH ANNUAL REUNION OF THE 

the same, and in behalf of the citizens of this, our young city, sprung up since 
those bellicose days, 1 congratulate you that it has been your happy privilege 
to see the struggle ended, victory perched upon your banners, the preserva- . 
tion of our flag with the eradication of the foul stain from its fair folds, the. 
unity of the republic, the unprecedented development of the country in 
the arts and sciences, literature and the liberal encouragement to the 
education of the young and rising generation, and also the fact that those 
who then opposed you. in arms and sympathy, whether north or south 
with us and you rejoice. Since the quality and potency oi the benefits 
conferred by a republic upon its people, the honor and distinction won and 
held, we hope that there with Him we may in spirit dwell among the sister 
nations, the character of the influence exerted upon them and mankmd, 
the glory and renown that may reverberate down the isles of time and the 
solidity and perpetuity that has characterized the past, does now and 
ever will be depended upon by the intelligence, integrity, honor, love of 
freedom, patriotism and valor of its citizens and citizen soldiery. Who 
siiall dare question you the right or refuse to aid you in celebrating vic- 
tories and impressing the spirit of loyal devotion to country —that fervid 
devotion that has so characterized you ; that the future may be inspired by 
the deeds of the past. In behalf of the citizens of Creston also, I bid you 
a most hearty welcome to "Camp Sheridan," arranged for your coming 
and enjoyment. May you around these camp fires in retrospective wit'"* 
reminiscence, story and song live over your hardships, pleasures and vic- 
tories. May you have a joyous, happy time. May the memories of Camp 
Sheridan be a joy in the future. If there be anything left undone, charge 
it not to a lack of desire to supply or to do it. Again 1 say be happy; a 
few more rolling suns, and camp fires will be no more forever. We shall 
have joined the vast majority and where our grand heroic commander has 
preceded us. No less grand and heroic is his last grand although unsuc- 
cessful struggle. Let us hope that with him and them in spirit we may 
witness the continued welfare, happiness and prosperity of our republic - 
that prosperity throughout the ages may prove as devoted to its heritage 
as we have been to ovir own. 



ADDRESS BY COL. W. P. HEPBURN. 

Col. W. P. Hepburn was next introduced, and as he arose to respond 
to the address of welcome, was received with a perfect storm of applause- 
The colonel's remarks were as follows : 

3Ir. President, ladies and comrades of Creston :— It is certainly 
pleasable to me that I should have been deputed as one of those represent- 



10 \VA AND IMISSO ( 'RI \ ^E TERANS. 9 

iiig tliis vast collection and concourse, as the one to return to you our 
thanks forthe hospitable, aye, more tiian hospitable manner in whic'a we 
liave been received and welcomed. We thank you from the very bottom 
of grateful hearts, and while we thank you individually as men, we do not 
fail to remember that in the hospitality you have shown us, and in the 
exertion you have made to make our coming hither pleasant, you have 
simply regarded us as tlie representatives of a large and vast concourse of 
men, and that vou, in expressing your kindness to us, liave been simj)!y 
emphasizing an epoch in our Country's history . We (\o not take it that 
ail these courtesies are extended to us as individuals, but we do take it 
tliat all of these expressions coming to us as the representatives of the men 
who atone time, when there was necessity for men, tc^ok upon themselves 
the res[)onsibiiities and burdens as patriots sliould. [Applause.] We are 
glad to know that the fires of patriotism tliat were kindled a quarter of a 
century ago are burning as brightly in the bosoms of you men and citizens 
today as they were when the bugle sounded, that called two and three 
quarter millions of peacable citizens to arms. We are glad to know that 
you can honor the gray and grizzled old men of a quarter of a century ago, 
just as in earlier times, the generations before reverenced the patriots of 
1775. Reverenced the heroes ot 1812; reverenced the Mexican veterans 
who marched from the ocean to the Mexican capitol and gave us a domain 
equal to many of the European states. We are glad to know that these 
failing types of that old army have a warm place not only in your recol- 
lections, but even in the esteem of the children that are growing up. 
There is the hopeful sign. It is not enough that the men of today should 
be patriots ; they have but a little while at best (and it will be but a little 
while), and they will pass away, leaving the republic the magnificent civili- 
zation of today, going onward and upward, a beacon light to all the 
nations, and we must teach, and do teach, the little ones of today the same 
lessons of patriotism that you have learned, and the same reverence iot 
the heroic service that you have sliown us today wel's up iu your bosoms. 
I have sometimes thought that possibly there were those who never rightly 
appreciated the burdens, and the labors, and the heroic services that my 
comrades perfoimed ; that my comrades endured. There has been noth- 
ing like it in all the history of the world, search v/here you will, scan out 
the pages you may, and nowhere in all the stories of the past is there to 
be found aught that approaches the splendid performance, the magnificent 
achievements of the loyal men and the friends at home from 1861 to 1865. 
Think of it for a moment will you ? With a mere skeleton of an army, 
only one meagre institution of learning where the military art was trans- 



lo NINTH ANNUAL REUNION OF THE 

ferred to the youth, and yet when the flag was imperiled more than two 
million ol this peace loving and peace reverencing manhood sprang to 
arms. Where is there in all history the like of that ? Two million, seven 
hundred and thirteen thousand names are upon the rolls of the federal 
army ; counting out the double and triple enlistment, probably the names 
of two millions of individuals are to be found upon the muster rolls. 
Counting out those who have been detailed upon detached service, leaving 
out those who were left along the line of transportation and those that per- 
formed the various duties at inome, there was more than a million and a 
half of men that actually met and endured the shock of battle. And of 
that million and a half what sad ravages war made on their ranks ! Did 
you ever think of the vast army of comrades who went to the front and 
never returned ? The records of the war department teach a .sad lesson. 
Of that million and a half, sixty-seven thousand were shot to death on the 
fields, where thev demonstrated their heroism and prowess. Forty-three 
thousand of them died of the wounds that they received in battle, in the 
hospitals of the army. Twenty-five thousand of them — I am simply giving 
you the round numbers in each instance in excess of the round numbers — 
twenty-five thousand of them died from accidents. Twenty-nine thous- 
and of them are known to have died in the loathsome prison pens of the 
south, and those who are best capacitated to estimate their number, swell 
this ghastly army of sacrifices in southern prisons to sixty thousand patriots 
and sufferers. Two hundred and twenty-five thousand died while their 
names were still upon the muster rolls of the army ; making an aggregate 
of more than four hundred thousand men, twenty-five out of every hundred 
men who enlisted and went to the front, and who died while they were 
still in the army and their names still upon the muster rolls. That is say- 
ing nothing of that vast concourse of men who from disease and wounds 
have died after their discharge. Gentlemen, think of the army of four 
hundred thousand men ! Why, compact them as infantry, and march them 
by phalanx, and they would make a solid marching column that would 
occupy eighty miles of our roadway. Then give them their trains of 
amunition, their pontoon trains, their regiments and brigades, their division 
and their corps tents, and their supply wagons for thirty days, and this 
grand column of men will reach from the city of Davenport clear across 
theprairiesof the state and the head of the column will be in the city of 
Council Bluffs when the rear guard leaves the Mississippi river. No man, 
no nation in modern times has been able to assemble together an army so 
vast in its proportions as the army of the dead that we left behind us in 
Dixie when we came home. Gentlemen, did these men die for a mere 



IOWA AND MISSOURI VETERANS. ii 

abstraction ? Did these men die simply for partisan causes ? Ah, no ! 
They died that there might be unity of the states. Tiiat there might be 
liberty in behalf of Union and progress ; it was for that they died. Gen- 
eral Rosecrans, the register ot the treasury of the United States, recently 
made the report in which he aggregates all of the expenses made in behalf 
of the preservation of the Union, footing it up to the grand aggregate of 
six and three quarter millions of dollars. Looking still further as a mater- 
ial question— merely as a question of dollars and cents — think how much 
greater than even that the expense has been. The average age of this two 
million seven hundred thousand men at the time of their enlistment was 
twenty-six years. At the age of twenty-six years scientific inquiry tells us 
that the expectancy of life is thirty-five years. Multiply the four hundred 
thousand dead by the expectancy of life, and you have the grand aggre- 
gate of twelve millions of years lost to the country. These men would 
have been producers. These men would have been creators of wealth. 
These men would have added to the power, and the grandeur and per- 
manancy of the republic. These twelve million of years multiplied by 
the actual earnings of a man of that age, four hundred dollars each year, 
gives us a wonderful aggregate and tells us of the infinite cost of the 
rebellion, counting it in dollars and cents. More than that, there were two 
million of men withdrawn from the industiial pursuits for three years, 
giving you another aggregate, for six million years; multiply that again by 
four hundred dollars, and see what a vast sum you have. More than 
seven billions of dollars in the loss to the industries of this country. Again 
taking into cortsideration the ravages of war, here and there and elsewhere, 
and you have the grand aggregate of nearly fifteen billions of dollars and 
to add to your four hundred thousand glorious lives. This is what the 
generation that is now passing away have contributed in order that the 
government founded by the fathers might be preserved and handed down 
to the sons. My friend has told us of some of the bright pages of history 
that are to be read by the youth now growing up ; he has depicted eloquent- 
ly and well, very many of the multitude of glorious pages, but he has 
omitted the grandest page in all of our history, in my humble judgment — 
it is the record — the glorious record— there is nothing like it since the 
Saviour of mankind came and suffered and died, and went to heaven. 
Nothing like it in all history. The people of this country recognizing the 
full enormity and import of this most wicked rebellion; recognizing the 
fact that from every fireside there has been taken the first born, remem- 
bering that at every hearthstone, and at every family board there was a 
vacant chair, remembering that upon all of the hillsides of the south land, 



ri NINTH ANNUAL REUNION OF THE 

on every sunny lanclscaj^e, by almost every gurgling brpok, wherever the 
tramp of the army had been, wherever heroism had been illustrated, there 
are humble graves and neglected, ot the loved ones from home. Remem* 
bering all of that, all of the cost in blood, and fortitude, and the agony, so 
horrible that it cannot be depicted, that was inflicted upon the brave men 
in the prisons pens of the south — yet when the rebellion was ended, when 
the nation had put its foot upon the neck of the rebellion, it welcomed 
every man, no matter how red handed he w-as, no matter how blood- 
stained he was, no matter how much of a promoter he was in the wicked- 
ness and crime against the union— welcomed him back to life and to a 
state, and to his citizenship. Where is the like to be seen ! [Applause.] 
No man e.xecuted for his crime against the nation; no traitor punished, no 
estate confiscated and no political privilege abridged, every man notified 
to come into the fold of brotherhood and citizenship, and urged to take 
upon himself anew, the duties and responsibilities of citizenship, and 
enjoy the transcendent blessings of being one of a republic. In my humble 
judgment, Mr. President, that achivement, that glorious victory over our- 
selves, and our prejudices and our passions will be read in the hereafter 
as the crowning glory of the time, and will be the proudest page in the 
history of the generation that now exists. [Applause.] We have been 
governed like this by what our duty was to those who were in arms against 
us. I v/ill admit that it was hard, and I am a little fearful that I never can 
pretend, e.Kcept by the use of a great deal of pretense that I am one of 
those who can forget and forgive all that comes up in my memory when I 
see that armless sleeve and mutilated men, veterans of twenty-five years 
ago. Possibly it would be better if I could ; possibly it would illustrate a 
higher type of manhood if I could, but it seems to me that there are some 
things illustrated of heroism on one side, and brutal ferocity on the other, 
that perhaps it is not well on all occasions to forget. [Applause.] I 
think that in this audience there might be selected many men who know^ 
something about Andersonville. I was not one of the sufferers in that 
prison. There are a quarter hundred, or was, of the citizens of my county, 
ivho were in Andersonville, and I see some of them before me now, men 
who went into that prison from the paths of the farm, young and vigorous, 
with bodies full of health, and souls full of hope. Not one of those men 
but to-day is prematurely old. One of them I saw last night — not nearly 
so old as I, but he tottered with the infirmities of age, and the horrors of 
Andersonville. There are some of these young boys who have nevej- 
heard the story in all its loathsome details — 1 cannot tell it— I can only 
call attention to some of the features to illustrate it, enough to show the 
temper and the purpose of those who were in authority. That prison was 
not unlike in form the table before me, a parallellogram fifteen hundred 
feet the longest way, and twelve hundred feet accross the ends. Running

through it was a Httle stream of water, and just inside was the deadly dead- 
line. This little stream came from a morass in which lay rotting wood and 
weeds and everything of a vegetable nature, and everything that could 
add to the loathsomeness, and make it unfit to drink. Here was the 
camp of the confederate guard, the 4th Georgia militia, if I mistake not, 
and all of the ofifal of the camp washed into this muddy and fiUhy stream. 
The sides of the camp was a somewhat precipitous hillside so that the offal 
of the camp found a speedy way into the current of the stream, from which 
the men must drink. The features of the creek were marshy, and worked 
up easily into mud, the hillsides near the camp were covered with pines, 
but with a refinement of cruelty they were all cut down and removed ; no 
shade of any kind, and the summer sun sometimes beamed down so hotly 
that in the shade if there had been any, the thermometer would have stood 
at no, and in winter the mercury fell far below the freezing point, and 
those men clustered in there so thickly that during the months of July 
August and September 1S64 the space allotted to the use of four men, 
would be less than the space occupied by this stand. Their rations were 
two ounces of bread per day made from corn meal, unbolted, and meat, 
when meat was served, was an ounce per day, a sweet potato, and on such 
rations men were expected to live. They became insane in many instances, 
their reason dethroned, the stronger would steal from the weaker, and 
would betray one another when escape was thought to be made. The food 
that was brought them, was brought in the uncleansed wagons in which 
a score of their comrades festering lately with disease, and covered 
with sores had been hauled out. These are lacts gentlemen 1 These at- 
rocities are not the horrible, horrible atrocities of men in low degree and 
of a low mind. 1 have collected some of these enormities from the report 
of the adjutant general of the department of the confederate army made 
directly to^efferson Davis, and that report was found in the archives of the 
confederate war department, showing that the very head of the confed- 
eracy knew of the untold sufferings that were being heaped upon the 
heroes of Andersonville forts, the man in command boasted to this officer 
that he was doing more for the confederacy than General Lee, at the head 
of his army of Virginia. That he was filling more graves with Yankee 
carcasses than was Lee and the trained veterans of his command. You 
may be able to forget all of these things. [Cries of never ! never!] You 
may be able to forgive all these things. [Never! never, v/e don't want to!] 
If you do, I confess it with grief, you have more grace in your hearts than 
I have in mine. [Great applause.] I am occupying to much of your time 
— [Cries of go on, go on.] I am only one of many ; I see here my friend, 
Major Anderson, who will address you ; I see right before me Governor 
Waldron, who, I hope, will be brought into service, I want to listen as well 
as to speak. I see my friend. Captain Davis, up there, and I hope j'ou will

of other gentlemen here that I would like to hear, and I will content myself 
Mr. President, by saying, and I know that I am authorized to say it by 
every one of my comrades here, that we thank you from the bottom of 
grateful hearts for this welcome you have given us, not simply as a courtesy 
to us, but as a recognition upon the part of this people and of all that 
grand and noble army of which we are glad now from the bottom of our 
hearts that we were permitted to be a part. [Applause . ] 



ADDRESS BY MAJ. A. R. ANDERSON. 

Comrades, Fellow Citizens — I assure you that I appreciate the honor 
of having been suggested as a fit representative, at least in some degree, 
to respond to the royal and cordial welcome that has been tendered by 
the citizens of Creston and vicinity to that grand old army, the remainder 
of which has assembled here on this fair ground for the purpose of recall- 
ing and recounting the hallowed memories of war. It will be the pride of 
my life, fellow citizens, to think that I have been found fit, in some slight 
degree, in some sense, to stand as a representative of that grand old army 
that did more in four years of actual war in this country from iS6i to 1865, 
to lift up and ameliorate and advance the condition of mankind, than any 
other army has ever done in any of the martial histories of the world. . It 
makes a grand story, to say nothing about your hardships, your privations 
and your grievances so eloquently and graphically portrayed by my 
friends , to say nothing about the long line of grand achievments and 
the grand triumphs of this grand old army, whose arms .have been 
mstrumental in achieving a higher condition and a better civilization 
in this new republic of ours. I am glad to see at this hour in our country's 
history, twenty years after the smoke has lifted from the battle fields of 
the south, as large an appreciation on the part of my fellow citizens, old 
and young, as is evidenced here today in the preparation that has been 
made for the reception and welcome of old guards of 1861-2-3-4-5. My 
fellow citizens, I think as my friend has stated that it is fitting on this 
occasion to do more than simply recount the traditions and stories of our 
arms during the battles of 1861-2-3-4-5. We are here to do all honors 
to the old guard of the war of the rebellion, who were more than loyal to 
this country of ours than any who have preceded them in history. My 
friend has given you a fine description, but I am not an adept in speaking 
of these things, and have not the gift, but I want more particularly during 



rOrVA AND MISSOURI VETERANS. n 

tlie time that I shall have your attention, to speak of the struggles of the 
years 1862-3-4, the dark days of the war, and the grandeur of the achiev- 
ment of the federal armies during that trying period. My fellow country- 
imen, you have heard from my friend, <the colonel, of -the great hardships 
you endured in Andersonville and Libby.; of all the horrors incident to a 
■war of that kind. Yet I know there is not a man left of that old guard 
within the sound of my voice, or tliroughout the length and breadth of this 
•country, that bore a part and did battle for that :grand old flag, but were 
that Rag today in jeopardy either from internal or external foes, but would 
spring to her defense as they did in the year 1861. Why, my comrades, 
you have every day of your lives, and with increasing years that desire will 
increase. I say every day you have reason to thank God that you lived 
dn a time in the nineteenth century, when you were able to furnish your 
fellow countrymen and posterity ample and abundant proof that you were 
the sons of an illustrious ancestry, that had transmitted to you, carried out 
by their valor and their prowess the greatest inheritance that was ever 
transmitted by man to man. You lived in a time when it was your privi- 
lege to defend by the valor of arms that heritage; that great blessing that 
was transmitted to you by the fathers of the republic. In other words you 
lived in the second epoch of the history of this government, that placed 
you in the field to bear arms for this republic founded by our fathers, and 
you there made a record that justifies all mankind, yea, more than justifies 
mankind in placing your names beside the names of our heroic fathers. 
They had the privilege of finding this m.ighty nation, and you had the wis- 
dom and the goodness and the valor to save the United States— thes« 
united colonies. It was a great thing that the fathers of 1S76 conceived, 
and it was a great labor on their part to carve out their own independence 
against the powers of the earth, and from the raoraent that feat was accom- 
plished and the nations of the old world recognized the united colonies as 
an independent povjer a new civilization shone upon the entire length and 
breadth of the civilized world. But our fathers, though wise, were human 
and their hearts were human, and their minds were human, and their con- 
ceptions were the conceptions of human minds and their work was the 
work of human hands, and it is not strange that there was left sowed in 
that soil of the new republic that sooner or later should ripen into that 
discord and ferment, that civil strife, that would give their posterity this 
grand opportunity to make it a matter of record, that you were not only 
worthy of the heritage but that you could and would defend it, and that 
you were in harmony with the declaration of principles as declared on the 



i6 mNTB ANNUAL RE UNION OF THE 

fourth day of July, 1876, which among other things declared that all mera 
uere born free and equal and v/ere endowed with certain unalienable 
rights among which wiere life, libeity and the pursuit of happiness. Of- 
course the question of slavery was one of the prime causes of the war, the 
institutiort and questions arising therefrom-, but there was another thing — 
an idea at the very time of the declaration of independence, and that was- 
as to what that meant. Two- separate and distinct ideas- of government. 
One idea was of a union and the other was of a confederacy. These two- 
ideas were diametrically opposed to each other and they wervt on with 
varying fortunes mitil finally the conflict ripened iato a war and it was. 
settled oi> the field of battle as to- what our government was. At the time 
of the declaration of independence by our fathers in 1876, they were after 
independence, and it was left an open question at that time as to the forn-R 
of government we were to have — as to what constituted this government 
that was independent. It was left' for the soldiers of 1861-2-3-4 and '65 to 
solve that problem. My fellow country r^en, as to how well and how 
wisely and completely it was solved and settled does the present great and 
abundant prosperity and peace in this country bear witness? [Henry 
O'Conner, "Prosperity, hell ! with a rmillion of men out of err^ployment." — 
Laughter.] Grant stands today as the hero of one eix>ch, and General 
George Washington stands as the personification of the achievments of 
1776, when in the United Colonies a separate and distinct power on the 
face of the earth was begun. General Grant stands- as the personification of 
the iderj of unification in this country, and the establishment on tlie basis of 
unification for these states. My fellowcitizens, judging from this standpoint 
k is easy to see what thearuKes of the republic — of Grant, and Sherman, 
and Thomas, and Sheridan has done in these long years. It is easy to see 
what they have accomplished in behalf of mankind. Wow my fellow 
soldiers, as I said before, you have reason to be thankful that you lived in 
a lime when you could put your impress on the history of your country 
where the proudest pages are to be found, and when frcm year to year my 
fellow citizens are met in these recurring reunions will they become more 
sacred and hallowed. I do not think there is any politics in discussing 
with you that great principle intended and sought to be raised by George 
Washington. I do not belong to that class of pessimists who think we are 
always in danger. I do not belong to that class of men who think we are 
always on the eve of a great war. I think Grant's idea of unification has 
been so thoroughly accomplished that no one in this country desires war. 
My fellow comrades, I think the bright particular star in the crown of your 



lOlVA AND MISSOURI VETERANS. 17 

glory that will shine undinimed to the end of time, and be an unceasing 
guide to the feet of patriots in the years to come, in this country, is found 
in the fact that all of your acts in those days of the splendid accomplish, 
ments of the Union soldiery . I say the bright particular star in the crown 
of your glory will be the fact that in all the four years, war for human 
liberty and human principles, you have maintained at all times such an 
honorable conduct from one end of the war to another, that there is not 
a single act on the part of any of the old guard for which any of their com- 
rades need blush. And on their part the war was fought out on such 
broad and humane principles that the results commend themselves to the 
judgment of mankind. My fellow countrymen, and my fellow comrades, 
I do not intend to detain you here but a few moments longer. I know the 
length of time that has been occupied preceding me. I know how well 
and eloquently you have been entertained, and I know how disa- 
greeable the surroundings are, but I want to talk a few minutes with these 
old men I see here and then I am through. The Old Guard ! The rem- 
nant of the grand old army of 1861 ! There are representatives of regi- 
ments upon this ground today from every state in this union of states, and 
who are today thankful to have been permitted to participate in that con- 
flict, and establish the ideas and doctrines and results that make this 
country the brightest legacy that they could leave to their children and 
their child rens' children. In this country, my fellow citizens — taking the 
two epochs in this government under consideration, the first being inde- 
pendence under Washington, and the second unification under Grant, I 
submit to you that the Meccas, in the eyes of patriots in this country in all 
the coming years, will be the shrine of Washington as he sleeps in Mt. 
Vernon, on the banks of the Potomac, and the tomb of Grant in the River- 
side Park on the banks of the Hudson. My fellow citizens, the memory of 
your valiant deeds will live in the minds of the people of this republic with 
the memories of Washington and Grant. The great purpose of the one, 
and the great results accomplished will impress upon the minds of the 
youth of this country such a lesson of patriotism and devotion to their gov- 
ernment that should she again be wounded they will spring to her defense 
as did their fathers in 1861 . I thank you kindly and heartily for the atten- 
tion you have given me under these extraordinary circumstances (raining). 
I hope, in behalf of these people in Creston, that as a result of the great 
preparation that they have made, that you will find it comfortable and 
pleasant, and that you will go to your homes with pleasant recollections of 
this time and this place and these people who have given so liberally of 
their time and money to try and make it pleasant for the old guard upon 
this, the occasion of their reunion . I thank you for your attention . 



iS . NINTIJ ANNUAL REUNION OF THE 

ADDRESS OF EX-GOV. WALDEN, OF IOWA. 

Comrades, Ladies and Gentlemen: —It affords me great pleasure to 
stand before you as the representative of the boys in blue. I 
JTave in my time filled some places of honor and trust in my 
county and district and state; btit I want to say to you, in 
all candor, that I never stood before a people vvith more pride 
than I stand here today to represent the remnant of the boys in blue. 
[Applause.] I want to say to you in connection vvith this reunion — if it is 
a failure (and it is not a failure for the people of this beautiful and 
enterprising city), yoti have done your part to make it a grand success. In 
view of the fact that is it raining, if you will give me your attention, I will 
promise not to detain you more than two hours and a half. My friend, 
Col. Hepburn, in his address alluded to the fact that not one man was 
hung on account of the great crime of the rebellion perpetrated against the 
American nation. I desire to call his attention and your attention to the 
fact that that man who presided over the prison so graphically described 
by him, that vast charnel house known as Andersonville (not named in 
honor of my friend, the major here), was hang at Washington at the close 
of the war. 

Col. Hepburn: — He was hung for murder and not for treason. 

Mr. Walden: — I have made another mis-speech. [Laughter.] I want 
to say to you that I am full of the milk of human kindness. I would not 
drown a kitten. I would not brush off a mosquito that had sunk his red 
well in my hand. But I have always labored under the impression that 
that man was hung for his misdeeds at that prison. He ought to have 
been hung between Gen. Witder, who managed that prison, and Jeff 
Davis, who was the presiding genius. [Applause.] Over here the other 
day at Leon I was called on for a speech, and I was admonished by the 
members, or somebody else, that I should not put any politics or religion 
in my speech. I was reminded of the old preacher in the country who 
was called to take a charge. He was a genf of some experience, and it 
was a quarrelsome, wrangling charge, where they had dispensed vvith the 
services one after another until this man was called . He did not want to 
get into a fracas and he applied to one of the deacons and asked him how to 
get along without trouble. "Well," said he, '"there is only one way you 
can do that here. If you will go into that pulpit every Sunday and preach 
and never say anything about politics or religion, you will be all right."' 
Why, gentlemen, you cannot talk without talking politics . What are we 
here for ? What was the war about ? [A voice "that's it."] I do not 



tOWA AK'D MiSSOUkI VETEkANS. ' 19 

mean partisan politics. I do not mean that I must come here and offend 
a gent that differs with me as to whether Jones or Smith shall have an 
office, but I am here to do all honor that \Vithin me lies to the brave bo_vs 
"who preserved the union of our fathers . What was the condition of the 
country ? The treasury was bankrupt. There was not money enough in 
the United States treasury to have bought a square meal for a jay bird. 
Our ships were scattered and the government trembling on the brink of 
ruin. You boys (I call you boys for it seems better to me), when you went out 
the government was in peril and you left home, left all that heart holds most 
dear, gave up the old homestead, friends, family ties, past four years of 
your lives ; time when you would have been laying the foundations of 
financial and business successes ; time when you would have been in col- 
lege fitting yourselves for the different walks of life. What was the 
occasion? What would have been the result had you not gone? What 
would the greenback have been worth ? You made the greenback dollar 
worth its face in gold wherever the sun kisses the earth. You broke the 
shackles from four million human beings in bondage. You turned the 
very sands in the rivers into gold; Unshackled industry and dignified labors 
stimulated inventive genius; caused the wheels and spindles to turn; caused 
the railway to stretch across the land, across the Missouri and away to the 
mountains on our western border, and compelled them to unlock their 
vaults and give up their treasure^ and a stream of wealth poured into the 
treasury for years as the harvest of your valor, until there is millions of 
surplus. And now I see many of my old gray-headed comrades living on 
forty acre tracts, living in rented houses, and racking their brains and 
ransacking the jcomnmnity to prove that tweedle^dee is not tweedle-dum. 
Boys, I am not running for congress. [Laughter.] I believe that the time 
has come, that the time is now, when every man thai v/ore the blue and 
looked a vvild rebel in the face ought to have a pension. Because had it 
not been for your valor and your sacrfices there would not have been any 
money in the United States to give anybody a pension. If yon have any 
boquetsforme I want you to give them to me no\V; donH keep them to put 
on my coffin; don't place them on my coffin, but give them to me today. The 
sacrifices so eloquently referred to by my friend, the colonel, cost blood 
and treasure. But that was not all. After the battle of Shiloh, an old gray- 
headed man was seen walking over the field, his head down, peering 
anxiously into the faces of the dead. Long he kept up the weary search. 
He had an only child— a boy, in an Iowa regiment, the pride of the house- 
hold, and the old man was down there looking for him. The mother had 
remained at home. After a long and weary search the father traced his 



20 NINTH ANNUAL REUNION OF THE 

boy into one of the hopistals, where he found him wounded and dying, 
and bent his head until his gray locks rested upon the breast of his child, 
when his heart was still and his pulse had ceased, and the eyes had closed 
in death. The old man stood up in the strength of his manhood and ex- 
exclaimed, "my home now is childness. It is hard. But if I had another 
boy, if I had another child, he should take up the musket just as it left the 
dying grasp of this one and go on to the war." And that is not all. There 
was the mother and. that was the hardest of all. Sitting there, waiting; 
waiting for the old clock to tick the hours away ; waiting for the weekly 
mail to bring news of the absent loved ones^that was the hardest of 
all. I am glad to have been here to look into your faces. Comrades, 
while I have a home there is always a welcome there. Come in the even- 
ing, or come in the morning ; come at the noon-tide ; come without warn- 
ing — you will always find the latch string out. 



ADDRESS BY GENERAL PHIL SHERIDAN. 

Comrades: — I came here today to see you and talk with you and shake 
hands with you, while Col. Carr and others, you know, came here to make 
eloquent addresses for you to listen to. I think he has been too eulogistic 
of me in his remarks. It is true that I fought in almost everybody's army, 
from Pea Ridge to Appomatox, and although I fought with cavalry and 
with infantry and on every line of operation, and always had to change and 
take new men on new lines, I was very successful . I went through all 
the grades they had in the volunteer service, and then I comm'enced and 
went through all the grades in the regular service, and the date of every 
commission that I have is the date of ^a battle Now I want to say to 
you, comrades, this, that I am indebted to the private in the ranks for all 
this credit that has come to me. [Applause long and continued.] He 
was the man who did the fighting, and the man who carried the musket, 
is the greatest hero of the war, in my opinion. I was nothing but an agent. 
I knew how to take care of men. I knew what a soldier was worth, and 
I knew how to study the country so as to put him in right. I knew how 
to put him in a battle when one occurred, but I was simply the agent to 
take care of him and he did the work. Now, comrades, these are common 
sense things, and I can't say them in very flowery language, but they are 
true, nevertheless, and they are true, not of me alone, but of everybody 
else. It is to the common soldier that we are indebted to any credit that 
came to us. Now, I am glad to see you here today, gentlemen, and I am 



/OIVA AND MISSOURI VETERANS. 21 

glad to be with you on this occassion. There are many men here today 
who served in the field with me, and it is a great pleasure to me to find 
them out, and they have been very kindly in their remarks lo me. While 
they were with me I certainly did all I could for them. I often laid awake 
planning for their vv'elfare, and I never killed a man unnecessarily. One 
great trouble with men who command troops, is that they kill men unnec- 
essarily. You may kill as many men as you choose, if you give them an 
equivalent for the loss. Men do not like to be killed for nothing; they 
do not like to have their heads rammed against a stone wall, unless for 
some good results. Those are the points I made during the war. When- 
ever I fook men into a battle I gave them victory as the result of the en- 
gagement, and that was always satisfactory.
